OFFICE OF NUCLEAR MATERIAL SAFETY AND SAFEGUARDS
WASHINGTON, D.C. 20555 May 25, 1988 NRC INFORMATION NOTICE NO. 88-32: PROMPT REPORTING TO NRC OF SIGNIFICANT
INCIDENTS INVOLVING RADIOACTIVE MATERIAL
Addressees
All NRC material licensees.
Purpose
This notice is to emphasize the importance of prompt reports to NRC of signi- ficant incidents involving licensed radioactive materials, as required by
10 CFR Sections 20.402 and 20.403. It is expected that' licensees will review
this notice, distribute it to responsible radiation safety staff, and consider
actions, as appropriate, to assure that NRC receives prompt notification of such
incidents. However, this information notice does not constitute new NRC require- ments, and no written response is required.
Description of Circumstances
Title 10 CFR Sections 20.402 and 20.403 require certain incidents involving
licensed radioactive material to be promptly reported to NRC. The most signifi- cant incidents must be reported immediately, and others must be reported within
24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />. The types of incidents to be reported are radiation overexposures, excessive releases of radioactive material, loss of facility operations
exceeding one day, damage to property exceeding $2000, and loss or theft of
significant quantities of radioactive material.
One case involved a 1986 contamination incident at Wright-Patterson Air Force
Base in Ohio. Radiation workers in a radioactive waste storage building
opened a package containing americium-241, and inadvertently spread contami- nation within the building. The event was not initially reported to the NRC.
When the licensee's staff initiated decontamination efforts, the contamination
got worse. The event was not reported to NRC for eight days, and the initial
report did not adequately describe the extent of the contamination. NRC was not
fully informed of the seriousness of the contamination until 27 days later, when reports were received from third parties, and inspectors were dispatched
to the site. Clean-up efforts eventually required several weeks and cost
several hundred thousand dollars.
IN 88-32 May 25, 1988 Other incidents which have not been promptly reported to the NRC have included
a serious fire which damaged a device containing radioactive material, and
losses of gauges containing radioactive material.
Discussion:
It is important that significant incidents involving licensed radioactive
material be promptly reported to NRC in accordance with 10 CFR Sections 20.402 and 20.403. Incidents should be reported to the NRC Operations Center, which
is staffed 24 hour2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />s-per-day, at telephone number 202-951-0550. It is important
that NRC receive such prompt notifications so that we can immediately determine
the need for appropriate emergency actions to protect the public health and
safety. Violations involving the failure to report incidents promptly could
result in escalated enforcement actions from NRC.
It is suggested that licensees carefully review the requirements of 10 CFR
Sections 20.402 and 20.403. In particular, incidents involving loss or theft
of radioactive materials, fires which damage devices containing radioactive
material, or contamination incidents which cause loss of use of facilities
or devices, or require expensive clean-up, should be promptly evaluated as to
whether they must be promptly reported to NRC.
In some cases, failure to report incidents to NRC may have been due to
licensees' misinterpretation of the requirements of 10 CFR Part 20. The NRC
staff is reviewing 10 CFR Sections 20.402 and 20.403, and will make clarifying
amendments as appropriate.
No written response is required by this notice. If you have any questions
regarding this information notice, please contact the appropriate NRC Regional
Office or this office.

IN 88-XX
May , 1988 Other incidents which have not been promptly reported to the NRC have included
a serious fire which damaged a device containing radioactive material, and
losses of gauges containing radioactive material.
Discussion:
It is important that significant incidents involving licensed r loactive
material be promptly reported to NRC in accordance with 10 CFR ections 20.402 and 20.403. Incidents should be reported to the NRC Operatio s Center, which
is staffed 24 hour2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />s-per-day, at telephone number 202-951-055 . It is important
that NRC receive such prompt notifications so that we can mediately determine
the need for appropriate emergency actions to protect the ublic health and
safety. Violations involving the failure to report inci nts promptly could
result in escalated enforcement actions from NRC.
It is suggested that licensees carefully review the rquirements of 10 CFR
Sections 20.402 and 20.403. In particular, incidents involving loss or theft
of radioactive materials, fires which damage devices containing radioactive
material, or contamination incidents which cause loss of use of facilities
or devices, or require expensive clean-up, should be promptly evaluated as to
whether they must be promptly reported to NRC.
In some cases, failure to report incidents to NRC may have been due to
licensees' misinterpretation of the requirements of 10 CFR Part 20. The NRC
staff is reviewing 10 CFR Sections 20.402 and 20.403, and will make clarifying
amendments as appropriate.
No written response is required by this n9tice. If you have any questions
regarding this Information Notice, please contact the appropriate NRC Regional
Office or this office.
